This delicious, moist, and tart bread is easy to make and pairs well with my maple butter bread. Made with my favorite hard cider company Stormalong. I used their “Light of the Sun” which screams spring/summer. It has hints of dragon fruit, tarty from the mango, and all around tropical.
This bread pairs well with my hard apple cider butter.
